KABUL\/WASHINGTON
\nUnited State\u2019s Special envoy for Afghanistan, Thomas West, said that there is no decision as of now about the recognition of the Islamic Emirate by Washington.
\nThe US sought to see a representative government formed in Afghanistan and the commitments made to the international community upheld, he added.
\n\u201cWe haven\u2019t made a decision on recognition. I think a lot of countries haven\u2019t. We want to see the establishment of a responsible record of conduct when it comes to the treatment of Afghans. We want to see this practice of the detaining of women\u2013and in particular detaining of women protesters\u2013we want to see that end resolutely. And those are ongoing areas of conversation,\u201d he said.
\nWest said the US is concerned about the possible increase in Daesh and Al-Qaida activity in Afghanistan and stressed that Daesh is the shared enemy of Kabul and Washington, and the US wants the Islamic Emirate to succeed in suppressing Daesh.
\n\u201cWe definitely have concerns about the nature of the Taliban\u2019s campaign against ISIS, but we want to see that succeed. We don\u2019t want to see any ISIS-K in Afghanistan. We will see when the weather, I think, continues to warm up. But we don\u2019t want to see any of those attacks,\u201d he added.
\nThe Islamic Emirate has repeatedly denied the presence of any terrorist group in Afghanistan and assured that there will be no threat to any world country from Afghan soil.
\n\u201cIn the Doha Agreement we made that promise and we are upholding our commitment,\u201d Hanafi said.
\nWest also raised concerns about the humanitarian situation in Afghanistan and said the war in Ukraine is likely to divert the world\u2019s attention from Afghanistan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
